Consequently, food safety has become one of the current priorities of European health authorities. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\" style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;\">\u00a0 \u00a0Thus, in recent years there has been a great demand to develop rapid, reliable, sensitive and easy-to-use methods for the analysis of biotic and abiotic contaminants in foods.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\" style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;\">\u00a0 \u00a0This project aims to design a portable and low cost device capable of detecting several analytes of interest in the food safety area.
